TWO INJURED IN AUTO CRASH ON RIVER EDGE Paul Mullikan and C. L. York Have Narrow Escape in Early Morning. Two men were Injured and one man escaped injury at 1 o'clock this morning when a touring car in which they were riding Jumed the curb at Bank avenue and New York streets, crossed the lawn and sidewalk, tore down about thirty feet of steel railing, turned over, and hung at the edge of the high flood wall on the west side of White River. John C. Ellis, 602 West Maryland street, owner and driver of the automobile escaped injury. Lieut. C. L. York, 6721 Bonna avenue, who was riding in the rear seat suffered bruises and his face was scratched and cut, Paul Mullikan, 2221 Brookside avenue, who was riding on the front seat with Ellis, suffered a sprained hip. NO REPORT MADE TO POLICE. No report was made of the plunge to the police until 10 o’clock today when Motor Policemen McClure and Englebright were assigned to Investigate. The wrecked car had been removed by a service company at 7 o’clock this morning. Three persons were reported injured and taken to a hospital. A search of the hospitals failed to show that any one injured in an automobile accident had been brought ,in during the night. The police, however, located the automobile In an alley between Capitol avenue and Senate avenue near North street. The- service company proprietor told the officers that It was John C. Ellis' car which he had recently purchased from them. Ellis was found at his mother's hotel, 602 West Maryland street. He told of the accident. "I was driving sooth on Bank avenue," eald Mr. Ellis, “and attempted to make | the turn at New York street, when the automobile crashed into the railing. I ivas not Injured. Mr. York was bruised and his face was slightly scratched and Mr. Mullikan suffered a sprained hip. I guess I was talking too much and not watching the turn close enough. We were on our way in from the Casino Gardens when the accident happened." The automobile was badly wrecked. After the accident a thief deftly stole three tires from the wrecked car.

Many of the ruined villages nave been rebuilt, but a great many of them still look quite the same as when the American lads departed. These pictures wlil help bring bfeck to mind the days when they were in “the big thing." These pictures, which were taken quite recently, are an example or what has been done in three famous cities since American troops left France. One shows all that remains of the American base camp at Brest, where the majority of American soldiers were landed, and where they were later embarked for home. Another shows the ruins about the city hall of Chateau Thierry, which has not been rebuilt to any great extent. The third shows part of the ruins of Chaions-sur Marne. Little has b*en done to rebuild the village. The “Unknown American Hero.” who was laid at rest In the Arlington National cemetery on Armistice day, was selected from this battlefield.

The issue is whether Indianapolis Is to continue to build first-class school building , n accordance with the program advocated by the present school board majority, or whether the school plant of this c.ty is to be allowed to drift into decay in order that a record of “saving' may be made. Back of this issue is a straightout fight be.ween Catholic and Protestant Influences which has been precipitated by (Varies L. Barry, a Catholic, who failed of election as president of the board in 1920 and has since bitterly opposed his assoc.ates on the board at all times. If any other member of the slate known as “the News slate" and composed of Barry, Uaslep, Emhardt, Yoke and Johnson, Is elected wilh Barry, then Barry will realize his ambition to become president of the Indianapolis school board. All the members of this “News" or “Little School" slate are pledged to a platform which is Impossible of accomplishment and means the blocking of better school buildings in Indianapolis. Although fourteen candidates are In the field, the real contest has settled down to the four candidates, favorable to a progressive building policy and indorsed by the Better Schools League, and the five candidates slated by the “Little Schools" movement which has for its object a reactionary policy of school administration.

Hutchinson, 900 North Delaware s*re‘’t." Mr. Meeker gave out the following eiaou„' the many other propaganda moves resorted to by the Shank organization to free Itself from the stigma or the Armltage Influences the Republican Chairman Kingston has appointed a committee for the alleged purpose of preventing and detect plated frauds on part of the Democratic committee. If Mr. Hutchinson really makes a bona fide offer for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any violators of the election laws, we will promise to report any frauds committed on either side and coming to our attention. While we have little confidence in the avowed purpose of Mr.Kingston’s committee to prevznt fraud, we will offer our cooperation to the fullest extent. “We wish to assure the public that so far a* our organization is concerned Mr. Kingston's vigilance committee will be unnecessary. But from reliable information coming to us we feel that the appointment of the ‘so-called’ vigilance committee while appearing to be a sincere effort to prevent fraud, is only a smoke screen, behind which the disreputable elements of the Shank organization may operate, as was done in the primary. it will be recalled that the Shank and Hartman forces also offered rewards for information concerning frauds in the primary, but they haven’t shown such great zeal to prosecute Hartman and his associates who assisted In nominating Mr. Shank. “We feel today that Mr. Shank's defeat will be so overwhelming that he will finally realize that he is simply not wanted for mayor of Indianapolis. It Is usually the natural thing to infer —that the party who ia most suspicious of others is the party to watch—and we therefore gladly consent to the same proposition of Mr. Kingston, that we will follow his example in regard to looking out for fraud on the part of the Shank element.” Two sectional Democratic rallies were planned for tonight, at tha South Sid*

(ADVERTISEMENT) Thirty-e : ght thousand Republicans voted against Shank at the primaries last May, while 28,854 voters, largely democratic, voted for him. He and and not receive the nomination because he was the choice of Republicans. And the nearer ejection day approaches, the weaker Shank is among Republican voters. Here is further evidence of the drift against Shank. Os the 143,000 voters registered, £3,010 filed their blanks on the seccnd registration day. The great majority of these were Republicans who had become aroused to the absolute necessity of defeating Shank at the polls. There are normally 50,000 independent voters in Indianapolis who vote for the best man at city elections, regardless of party. There is no question but that an overwhelming majority of these will vote for Ralston next Tuesday. Up-to-the minute figures indicate that Democrats on the South S da counted on by Shank wih vote for Ralston. Conservative figures, based on confidsntial information and checked by practical politicians, both Republican and Democratic, give Ralston a substantial majority in the Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth wards and all indications are that Mr. Ralston will carry the Fourteenth and Fifteenth wards. Assuming that the First, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh wards may go for Shank, Mr. Ralston wih have Second, Third, Fourth, Eighth and Ninth wards and whether the First and Seventh wards will go for Shank is extremely doubtful. This can mean only one thing, victory for Ralston. The die is cast and the Shank managers know it. Their desperation will be reflected during the next two days in ren ?wed and unfair attacks on Republicans who conscientiously believe Shank should be defeated.
